On trouve ce cône dans la littérature sous l' appellation Conus desidiosus (A. Adams, 1854) qui est un des nombreux synonyme de Conus ventricosus; je pense que le bon taxon serait Conus ventricosus f. desidiosus. Ceux-ci viennent de Corse (La Chiappa) et d' une ancienne collection (Jean Vilain). Certains cherchent des Conus ventricosus ''jaunes''... En voilà !!!!
Le vrai Conus desidiosus vit au sud de l' Italie (Lampedusa) et au sud du Portugal (Faro). Très ressemblant a Conus guanche il s' en distingue par l' absence de stries sur la spire. Taille: 41 à 26 mm.
